The Fargo Force were unable to use the momentum they built from their win over the Indiana Ice on Sunday into tonight's game as the Force lost to Waterloo tonight 8-2. Waterloo outshot the Force 49-28 on rout to the big victory. The Force have now dropped four of their last five games and will take on the Cedar Rapids Roughriders in a rematch from the series not so long ago. The Force will need to be better than they were in that series and certainly better than they were tonight to beat the Roughriders.

Scoring for the Force in tonight's game was Marek Hrbas (assisted by Nate Condon) and Johnnie Searfoss (assisted by Nate Schmidt and Garrett Allen). Both Force goals were scored on the power play, the only bright spot in the game for the Force (2/6 on the PP). Dayn Belfour stopped 36/44 shots in the game in relief of Ryan Massa who was injured about five minutes into the game. Belfour played a lot better than the score indicated as the Force didn't help Belfour much defensively. We are going to need a lot stronger effort to get a win on the road at the Stable.

Go Force!

EDIT: Ryan Massa Update - He was cut on the calf of his leg and got 8 stitches. He will be out at least two weeks.

The list is in two parts: The "Listing By College" page lists the NCAA schools and the players who have reportedly committed to them. The league and geographic pages contains a listing of players who have done well at the junior or minor hockey level, and therefore may attract NCAA attention. These pages of potential NCAA recruits are based upon the information available to me, and do not represent the views of the NCAA or any of its teams. Accordingly, many players who may attract (or in fact have already attracted) NCAA attention may not yet be listed because that information has not come to my attention. The listing of school commitments reflects reported verbal commitments to attend the school. Although verbal commitments are not legally binding until the player signs a binding NCAA Letter of Intent ("LOI"). Players who have signed a LOI are noted in bold. All other listings are of reported verbal commitments. (Ivy league schools do not use a LOI, so all commitments are verbal commitments only.)
